The venue for this clash is the Tokai Citizen Gymnasium in Aichi, Japan, with the action scheduled to begin at 9:45 AM IST (1:15 PM local time).

Defending champions India sit atop Group A with a perfect 3-0 record after dominant victories over Japan (49-24), Korea (63-31), and Bangladesh (48-25), having already secured semi-final qualification. Meanwhile, Chinese Taipei have momentum on their side after winning back-to-back games against Korea (43-37) and Japan (34-30), giving them four points from three matches.

Chinese Taipei Preview

Chinese Taipei produced a masterclass on Day 3 by clinching back-to-back victories over Republic of Korea (43-37) and hosts Japan (34-30). Shaking off their opening 47-48 heartbreak against Bangladesh, Chinese Taipei showed remarkable composure. 

Against Korea, their attack notched 29 touch outs and 12 bonus points while enforcing an all-out. Hours later against Japan, they rallied from an early deficit to secure 25 outs, seven bonus points, and two vital all-out points. 

Defensively, they executed tight ankle holds and disciplined chain tackles under intense pressure. Accumulating four points on the day, Chinese Taipei vaulted right back into semi-final qualification contention.

India Preview

India sealed their spot in the semi-finals in emphatic fashion, sweeping past Bangladesh 48-25 for their third straight comprehensive victory. 

Following dominant triumphs over Japan (49-24) and Korea (63-31), India seized immediate control to lead 29-9 at halftime. 

Their raiding unit operated with supreme efficiency, racking up 32 outs and 10 bonus points. Defensively, India remained impenetrable, keeping an airtight chain to inflict three all-outs for six all-out points. 

Sitting comfortably at the top of Group A with a +80 points difference, India march into their final group match with unmatched squad confidence and fluency.

India are undisputed favourites to cap off their group stage with a flawless 4-0 record. While Chinese Taipei displayed remarkable grit to win twice on Day 3, they will be battling physical fatigue against an Indian lineup with superior depth, punishing ankle holds, and multi-point raiders. We predict the total match points to be over 79.5 and back India to win and cover the spread (-18.5).
